About

Across the country, thousands of old buildings lie forgotten and neglected, tangled up by red tape and development restrictions, or just slowly decaying.Many of these properties are of outstanding historical interest.

Filmed over the course of the build, RESTORATION AUSTRALIA follows seven of these historically important buildings.

From inner city grand terraces, to small countryside homesteads, we follow the homeowners' restorations as they take the keys to their rundown properties in desperate need of some love, care and attention.

These caretakers with a variety of budgets are dedicated to embracing our country’s past and to restoring not only a house and a piece of Australian history, but a home to be loved and lived in.

Their vision of re-creating the houses to turn them into ‘forever’ homes isn’t simple. To faithfully restore with original fixtures and fittings, they first must replace white ant-damaged floors, water damaged walls and termite-infested windows. Some homes don’t even have a roof or a front door, but the homeowners cannot bear to see them torn down.

It’s not just a case of will the homeowners budget and time be stretched to the limit, but how are they going to do the properties justice whilst creating homes suitable for 21st century living?
